Yes. You're the only one who knows the answer to that question, which is
what I'm actually trying to "fix" in my kind-hearted way on this newsgroup.
 <https://skyica.com/appfinder/features/>

I'm trying to inform the technologically intelligent people on this
newsgroup that making decisions based *only* on Google Play Store app
search (and filter) results, means those people are always ignorant.
 <https://xdaforums.com/t/app-6-0-app-finder-the-most-advanced-search-engine-for-android-apps.4578809/>

As a result, they don't even know what they don't know.
Yet, the sad reality is, they think they do.

That's why they're always making such bad decisions on what apps to use.

On the other question though, if you do install the Skyica App Finder
 <https://skyica.com/appfinder/get/>

Please let me know if it asks you for money as it never asks me for money.

And I've used it since, oh, let me look on XDA when I first found out about
it and when I started working with the developer to make it work with
phones that have no Google Account and hence no Google Play Store app...

   <https://xdaforums.com/t/app-6-0-app-finder-the-most-advanced-search-engine-for-android-apps.4578809/post-89024201>

Notice that *intelligent* people work together to solve difficult issues.
Morons only complain they can't install the app because they're afraid.

BTW, if just a few of the intelligent people here use it, I will have
fulfilled my generously kind-hearted goal of informing people of not only
one of the best free apps on Android, but the best app finder bar none.

That's what makes me happy.

Do you get paid for this? This app is not for free.

  Well, the free one is. And as to the paid one: What's $40 between
'friends'!? :-)

In hindsight, it seems only Frank understood a single thing about this app,
where what I learned is that most people are so afraid of a non-Google app
that they (almost literally) leave puddles of piss on the floor in their
quivering fear.

I'm saying that in a very glaringly low-level but extremely obvious way
that the fear that people like Carlos and Vanguard feel about apps not from
Google is so strong that they actually give me credit for convincing them
the app is too dangerous for them.

I find that interesting.

They piss in their pants just hearing about apps not from Google.
And then they blame me for them pissing in their pants out of fear.

WTF?

They're afraid. But they can't admit that they're afraid. 
They leave puddles of piss on the floor - which shows clearly they're
afraid.

But they can't admit it.

So Vanguard came up with a whole plethora of insane excuses for what he
just should have said scares him so much that he peed in his pants at the
mere mention of loading a non-Google app to search for Google apps.

Likewise with Carlos - who - get this - blamed ME! for his puddles of piss
on the floor - when it's really that Carlos is as quiveringly scared as
Vanguard was.

Who is that afraid of an app that they piss all over themselves at the mere
mention of loading an app that isn't from Google to search Google's repo?

I learned a lot about the people on this newsgroup.
Mostly that they're afraid of everything.

It's time for them to clean up their piss on the floor and move to the next
thread as it's disgusting to me how fearful these people are of a simple
app.

They blame me for their fears.
They blame me because they pissed in their pants.

At the mere mention of an app that isn't from Google to search for apps
that are from Google.

That's actually kind of funny when you think about that is what happened.

Arlen, that you are so intense in praising that tool, trying to convince 
us, and even insulting us if we are not convinced, is enough to put me 
away from trying the tool.

He can't help himself.  Like Alan Conner, if you agreee with him then
you are a saint, but if you don't agree with him then you are the spawn
of Satan, and must be stupid and fearful spawn because you don't agree.

What you do not understand is I agree with ANYONE who makes a valid point.
And I disagree with ANYONE who fabricates inane excuses for their fears.

You spent hours fabricating absurdly ridiculous excuses for why you
couldn't install the Aurora APK also, Vanguard. You think I forget?

Face it.
You're *A-F-R-A-I-D*.

And that's OK.
But don't blame me for your insanely abnormal personal fears of an APK.

Stop blaming me for your own personal problems, Vanguard.
Be a man.

That's an odd thought process... very strange... almost incomprehensible... 

It's kind of like saying the Google Play Store OSMAnd app costs money so
you won't install the free F-Droid OSMAnd app - which is the same app.

The thought process of people who say such things boggles my mind...

And there you go misleading again.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.osmand

Yep, free.  However, this one is payware:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.osmand.plus

However, you said OSMand, not OSMand+.  Yet Fdroid you claim offers the
free (non-plus) version is instead proliferating the plus paid version
that you tout as free.  In a search on "osmand" at Fdroid, the only
match in their search was:

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/

That looks to be the OSMand+ version, but they substituted ~ for + in
the product name yet "plus" is in the URL path.

Read carefully that Fdroid app page which notes:
  Anti-Features (i.e., features you do NOT want for freeware)
  - This app contains non-free assets
  - This app promotes or depends entirely on a non-free network service

Yes, Fdroid carries the app, but also notes it is NOT a free app.  Nope,
I don't need to install it to check free versus paid.  I trust Fdroid
more than you.  You said OSMand (no plus sign).  You also said it's at
Fdroid.  That's OSMand+.  Sorry, I cannot address why Fdroid doesn't
carry OSMand non-plus (free) since their About page claims "F-Droid is
an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software)
applications for the Android platform."  Seems contradictory that Fdroid
carries OSMand+ instead of OSMand, but you claimed the one at Fdroid was
free.  Free download does not mandate free software.  Tis disappointing

There is a download limit for offline maps in Google Maps?  Or in the

stored on my SD card using those map apps.  The comment about lack of
POIs (Points of Interest) is one of the reasons my trial of OSMand (free
non-plus) ceased.  That along with them using county plats that did not

accuracy.  Hmm, and I didn't have to pay for Google Maps or Here [WeGo],
either.  OpenStreetMaps (OSM), and the OSMand that accesses the OSM map
database are valiant efforts indeed, but lost in my evaluation of it,
and of alternatives all of which were free, and all of which were
available at play.google.com.

Why are you repeating this? Everyone knows this. It's been discussed
something like a thousand times on this newsgroup Vanguard.
 OSMAnd+ is what is on the Google Play Store repo
 OSMAnd~ is what is on the F-Droid repo

Everyone knows that. I don't need to re-state it. Everyone knows it.

Every word you (and Carlos) write is about your abject fears of APKs.
And that's fine.

You're welcome to spend hours fabricating reasons for why you fear an APK.
Just don't blame me for your abject fears of something as simple as an APK.

You spend hours justifying your abject fears of something as simple as an
app, which is clear by your fabrications of why you can't install that app.

Instead of spending hours justifying your fears of an app, why don't you
just download the app, test it out, and let us know how it works for you?

That's what I do.

Provide 100 MIDs for those claimed "thousands" of prior discussions.
